said Bruce K. Forbes, IFMA Fellow, Founder and President/CEO of
ARCHIBUS, Inc. “i-EAM™ is a One-of-a-Kind Intelligent Offering, which
includes intelligent fixed & mobile furniture and equipment management,
Intelligent-Consoles™, Intelligent-Connectors™ with Quad-Directional
Connectivity™, Intelligent-Mobile Frameworks™, Intelligent-Performance
Metrics Frameworks™ and Intelligent UIFM Documentation & Reporting™
(Ubiquitous BIG Data™ Synchronization ). ARCHIBUS V.22 enables users to
efficiently manage the full spectrum of assets and their associated
short-, medium-, and long-term values throughout their intelligent asset
life-cycling. Accurate ARCHIBUS real-time asset performance metrics and
analytics empower organizations of all sizes in a timely and
cost-efficient manner.”

By automating what are typically labor-intensive tasks, ARCHIBUS
delivers unprecedented ease of use accessing and analyzing data, and
addresses planning, budgeting, environmental and regulatory compliance,
and other management goals to achieve greater competitiveness and
profitability.

ARCHIBUS can be used to effectively manage an organization’s local,
regional and global assets and performance metrics, with central
visibility and intelligence. The ARCHIBUS V.22 applications are
easy-to-use, flexible, affordable, and easy-to-integrate because they
work in the same centralized, unified, connected and seamlessly
integrated environment. The advances in ARCHIBUS workflows contained in
this recent release reflect best-of-class standards, benchmarks,
balanced scorecards, ROA valuations, KPIs, and practices as shared by
members of the ARCHIBUS Eco-System from around the world. These
contribute to more effective work teams because processes naturally flow
between individuals, departments, organizations and thousands of point
solutions, legacy systems and applications. Extensions of existing space
inventory, for example, flow into strategic space forecasts, and asset
management plans flow directly into capital planning and project
execution.

Enterprise Asset Management: A holistic end-to-end asset
management system for organizations that need to coordinate their real
estate, capital, and asset planning. This application features asset
reconciliation and asset/project proposal capabilities using
intelligent consoles for superior financial/asset management control,
as well as ERP integration.(Enterprise Asset Management
includes all of the functionality of the ARCHIBUS Asset Management
Application.)

Asset Management: The application provides an integrated
view of all assets including properties, buildings, land, structures,
equipment and furniture. It also supports the basic asset management
tasks of acquiring, managing, and disposing of assets throughout their
full operational life cycle. The overall result is reduced legal,
financial and operational risk. (Asset Management includes all of
the functionality of the ARCHIBUS Asset Portal Application.)

Intelligent-Strategic Space Planning

Strategic Space Planning: Delivers a solution built upon
the strategic master planning application and integrates with greater
ease of use, space planning with space budgeting and project
capabilities. Portfolio planners can match/model space supply with
space demand, given future expectations. For space planners, this
application supports comparison and proposal of options for
organizational moves based on specific events such as in-sourcing or
lease changes.

Asset & Equipment RegistrationMobile App:
A convenient, highly portable app scans and accepts assets singly or
in bulk while out in the field. It has features to avoid duplicate
entry and to validate categorization in the asset and ownership
hierarchies. It also speeds the work of staff at the loading dock or
shipping room who accept assets and those in the field who register
new building equipment, such as escalators and boilers.

This mobile app also allows users to add one or many equipment assets to
the database using smartphone and tablet devices. Asset & Equipment
Registration supports the auto-generation or use of barcode scanners for
asset ID, and retrieval of last ID, Prefix, and Common Data with limited
background syncing required.

Hazardous Materials Mobile App: A mobile app
complementing the ARCHIBUS Hazardous Materials application that has
evolved from a highly indexed document library into a true hazardous
materials management system. It offers more advanced capabilities that
include mobile inventory collection/verification, and more detailed
location tracking.
